Abstract

Methods and arrangements for facilitating a display of search results. A search query is received from a user having a predetermined access level. A search is executed based on the search query and, based on the executed search, initial search results are produced. Sensitive information is redacted from the initial search results, based on the predetermined access level. The redacted search results are filtered and re-ordered to forestall an inference of the redacted sensitive information. The filtered and re-ordered search results are displayed to a user. Other variants and embodiments are broadly contemplated herein.
